What were your parents doing at your age? I was just looking at a picture of my mom and I and I realized that she was just about my age now. My mom was a grandmother of 4, married and looking to reduce her work hours to part time. I was living in San DiegoContinue reading “When I was your age”

Teenage Valentine
Or not. Yeah, I didn’t date much then, still don’t. Whatever February 8 6th grade (yes, we have a rare 6th grade entry): (in the corner I wrote “Gary Coleman’s B.day”) Dad has company. B I don’t recall who the company was but I’m guessing they were work people. And I think it was purelyContinue reading “Teenage Valentine”
World Wide Web
The most important invention in your lifetime is… The internet. Yes, it has its problems but it has changed how we live and hopefully for the better. Although a part of me is nostalgic for the days when information wasn’t at our fingertips. I remember looking up information in the encyclopedias we had or goingContinue reading “World Wide Web”
My so-called teen life
First week of February in my teens. February 1 8th grade: I got accepted to [high school]. I am so happy. Huge thanks to my mom who somehow found the money to pay for my private school. It made a difference and some of my closest friends are from high school. February 2 8: WeContinue reading “My so-called teen life”
Old school
Write about your first computer. Not mine but my dad’s. It was an Apple III, look it up. It was a business computer that was before the Mac. My dad got it for an exorbitant amount of money. It had certain business functions that he liked. Pre-excel and word. He built a huge desk thatContinue reading “Old school”
These are the days
Only one more entry for January. Looking ahead, February looks more lively so stay tuned. January 28 9th grade: A space shuttle blew up today. It had the first civilian on it. She would have came to our school to talk. It was so scary, her kids were watch[ing] her. This still gives me chillsContinue reading “These are the days”
My So Called Life
Recapping last week, someone was sick and someone died. All caught up. January 19 8th Grade: Mom and I went to [see grandparents]. Grandma looks good and Granpa looked sad. Again with misspelling “Grandpa”. This was my nana’s birthday, my grandfather’s was a week or so later so it made sense to see them. MyContinue reading “My So Called Life”
Catching up on life
Getting back to my earlier post where I review my old diaries. TLDR? My mom was having a rough week when I was in 5th grade and I was having a rough week in 8th grade. January 12 9th grade: My old guidance counselor died, I feel so bad. He was a really nice guyContinue reading “Catching up on life”
Too much stuff
Where can you reduce clutter in your life? I have too much Christmas stuff. I get sentimental about the ornaments and decorations given to me and can’t throw things out. I have too much Christmas-related stuff and every year I try to clear out but I don’t and then I struggle to put it allContinue reading “Too much stuff”
A Year in the Life
I have had some old diaries laying around and I’ve decided to journal them this year. These are from 5th to 9th grades, I’m hiding personal details and names to protect the innocent (not that anything crazy happened nor do I think anyone will read this). I seem to fall off after a week orContinue reading “A Year in the Life”
